About the Book

Caleb, the Buddhist monk, is a fictitious character, who represents the teachings and wisdom of Buddhism. In his lively discussions with Bianca, Caleb asks us to transform our minds by cultivating thoughts. Bianca defines happiness as inborn maintained by fulfilment. Caleb thinks our unenlightened existence conditions suffering. In 21 sessions, Caleb and Bianca discuss what they believe to be essential to human happiness. What is the meaning of "compassion", the basis for "kindness", how can we relate to our "ego" and what really is "personality"? KING OF DESIRE QUEEN OF HAPPINESS offers a deep evaluation of human aspiration and motivation in an accessible and entertaining way. Religion and science are being scrutinised, traditional views challenged and our human existence reconnected to our natural roots. This book provides new food for thought! It encourages reflection and motivates real change, following on from Bianca Ferrari's first book "THE CONTINUUM OF HAPPINESS".
